gdbserver/linux: set lwp !stopped when failing to resume
I see some failures, at least in gdb.multi/multi-re-run.exp and gdb.threads/interrupted-hand-call.exp. Running `stress -C $(nproc)` at the same time as the test makes those tests relatively frequent. Let's take gdb.multi/multi-re-run.exp as an example. The failure looks like this, an unexpected "no resumed": continue Continuing. No unwaited-for children left. (gdb) FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-re-run.exp: re_run_inf=2: iter=1: continue until exit The situation is: - Inferior 1 is stopped somewhere, it won't really play a role here. - Inferior 2 has 2 threads, both stopped. - We resume inferior 2, the leader thread is expected to exit, making the process exit. From GDB's perspective, a failing run looks like this: [infrun] fetch_inferior_event: enter [infrun] scoped_disable_commit_resumed: reason=handling event [infrun] do_target_wait: Found 2 inferiors, starting at #1 [infrun] random_pending_event_thread: None found.

When the test passes, we get an EXITED status to indicate the process has exited. From GDBserver's point of view, it looks like this. The logs contain some logging I added and that are part of this patch.

This is expected this the leader has exited. - resume_one_lwp_throw throws, it's caught by resume_one_lwp. - resume_one_lwp checks with check_ptrace_stopped_lwp_gone that the failure can be explained by the LWP becoming zombie, and swallows the error. - Note that this means that the secondary lwp still has stopped==1. - wait_1 is called, probably because linux_process_target::resume marks the async pipe at the end. - The exit event isn't ready yet, probably because the machine is under load, so waitpid returns nothing. - check_zombie_leaders detects that the leader is zombie and deletes - We try to find a resumed (non-stopped) LWP to get an event from, there's none since the leader (that was resumed) is now deleted, and the secondary thread is still marked stopped. wait_for_event_filtered returns -1, causing wait_1 to return NO_RESUMED. What I notice here is that there is some kind of race between the availability of the process' exit notification and the call to wait_1 that results from marking the async pipe at the end of resume. I think what we want from this wait_1 invocation is to keep waiting, as we will eventually get thread exit notifications for both of our threads. The fix I came up with is to mark the secondary thread as !stopped (or resumed) when we fail to resume it. This makes wait_1 see that there is at least one resume lwp, so it won't return NO_RESUMED. I think this makes sense to consider it resumed, because we are going to receive an exit event for it.
